Default RE: Hornady 350 grain sabotless bullets

ORIGINAL: graveyard zombie

Yeah, it's been nagging on me that I didn't buy them for that price even though I wanted to find out something about them first. I'm going hunting tomorrow so I'm going to swing by there at lunch time and pick them up. The guy in sporting goods said he can't seem to get rid of them and he guesses it's because they are new plus being 350 grains. He said most hunters he deals with at this store want the powerbelts or other bullets around 250 grains (shockwaves).
PB for easy loading, SW with lo drag sabots for long range. Very popular bullets. It is hard for a new bullet to break into this inline MLer market, 'cause guys tend to not change once they get sighted in and know their load year to year. Most guys don't shoot their gun much, and don't experiment with different bullets. Only when they have a problem (loose a nice buck, find it 300 yards away the next day 1/2 eaten---been there done that)do the then seek out "what is best" or why this or that didn't work.
